Papa Hemingway In Cuba Review

The trade embargo between Cuba and the United States, imposed in 1960, has long prevented American films from being produced on the island, so it's very fitting that the first Hollywood project to shoot there in more than 50 years is a story that is not only very Cuban, but also very American. Based on the experiences of journalist Denne Bart Petitclerc, who wrote the screenplay before his death in 2006, Papa: Hemingway in Cuba explores the author's friendship with an ambitious young writer during his final years, as he struggled with depression and alcoholism.
